- Firefighters get a handle on Spokane wildfires as tens of thousands remain evacuated
Firefighters have established containment lines around three wildfires near Spokane, Washington, which have displaced 67,000 people and destroyed 850 buildings. One fire was deliberately set by an arrested individual, while the other two were human-caused but not necessarily intentional. Evacuations will remain in effect due to worsening weather conditions, with residents uncertain when they can return.
